Every year, around December, I write my predictions for the next year. I love it. I sit in a room with some colleagues and brainstorm on what we think will happen next year and then I go to my crystal ball and look into the future, and just to make sure I’m not too off, I take my DeLorean and go back to the future.
Okay, so I don’t really have a DeLorean (although I always wanted one) and the only thing you can see by looking into my crystal ball is, well, crystals. But reading back some of my predictions, I realized that a lot of them have been more like projections than predictions. So this year I decided to ignore the projections (i.e. SnapChat will introduce a paid model to monetize its services) and focus only on the absurd. If any of the below predictions will come true, I’m changing my name to Nostradamus. 1.
It’s about time that someone will come up with a financial model (and solution) that rewards social influence. 2. 3. 4. 5. Image credit: The New Yorker 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Open rate oswojony, czyli (prawie) wszystko o wskaźnikach otwarć kampanii mailingowych - Blog - Skuteczne newslettery i e-mail marketing bez abonamentu - FreshMail. Wskaźnik otwarć (open rate) to miara, która nastręcza marketerom wielu problemów. Czym tak właściwie jest?
W jaki sposób się ją oblicza? Kiedy zmiany tego wskaźnika traktować jako sukces, a kiedy – sygnał, że w którymś momencie planowania kampanii popełniliśmy błąd? By przynajmniej częściowo rozwiać powyższe wątpliwości – zredagowaliśmy poradnik, który w sposób w miarę przystępny pokrywa szeroki rozmiar tego zagadnienia. Jak mierzyć ilość otwartych maili? Wskaźnik otwarć mówi ile osób z naszej listy mailingowej, otworzyło lub widziało konkretną kampanię. Aby mierzyć ilość otwartych maili, do każdego z nich automatycznie dodawany jest fragment kodu, który żąda przesłania niewielkiego, niewidocznego pliku graficznego z serwera. Dobrze, zatem gdzie leży problem?
Kolejną sprawą jest fakt, że nasi czytelnicy mogą posiadać panel podglądu wiadomości w swoich klientach poczty e-mail. Zatem wskaźnika otwarć nigdy nie należy traktować jako sztywną miarę. Jak liczymy wskaźnik otwarć? Gdzie: Źródła: Social media strategy. What Losing My Job Taught Me About Leading - Douglas R. Conant. By Douglas R. Conant | 8:00 AM March 18, 2013 It was the spring of 1984. I remember the day as if it were yesterday. It was a beautiful morning on Boston’s North Shore and I could smell the sea air as I drove to my job as the Director of Marketing for The Parker Brothers Toy and Game Company.
Fortunately, the new owners had set me up with a fabulous outplacement person, Neil MacKenna. First, I learned the power of connecting with people by being fully present — in every moment. Too many leaders are so caught up in the momentum of work that they lose sight of the opportunity to connect with people. This is easier said than done (it takes a lot of mindfulness to keep your mind from wandering, or your gaze from flicking to your watch or your phone) but it’s essential to honoring people — another lesson I learned from Neil. He “honored” me with his time, his attention, his insight and his energy. And when someone does help you, acknowledge it.

Real-Time Bidding (RTB) Ecosystem Map. Infographic: The evolution of customer experience. By Sheridan Orr Forrester just released a study that shows customers feel more empowered than ever. As a result, customers have raised their expectations of the brand and the experience. Given the findings of this study, I thought it might be interesting to look at the pivotal moments that created the modern, connected and empowered customer. In the late 1800s, shopping consisted of trekking to a crowded market and heavy engagement with shopkeepers. A railroad operator received a large shipment of watches from a jeweler because the original client refused them. While the Sears catalogue remained wildly popular, passengers left the rails for cars. Shopkeepers were looking for a way to improve customer loyalty and John Biggins was looking for a way to make his bank the preferred institution for merchants. While Biggins was creating the credit card in Brooklyn, a Las Vegas tradition was being conceived.
Story continues below... What Sears did for print, QVC did for television. No Bull Shit Marketing. SALES & MARKETING Infographics. The truth about Real-Time Bidding (RTB): experts' view. Last week, we released a new Real Time Bidding (RTB) Buyer's Guide and an infographic on the RTB ecosystem. Though only a small percentage of marketers take advantage of this area of marketing, those who do are finding it to be one of the most efficient ways to reach customers across multiple touch points through a single campaign.
As there is still some confusion around this area, we reached out to four marketers deeply entrenched in RTB to find out what they think of it, the advantage of making it part of your spend and how it will affect the future of marketing. 1) What are the most significant benefits of real-time bidding? How important are data management platforms to this? Ari Paparo, SVP Product Management, AppNexus Real Time Bidding allows buyers to access the media they want based on their own data, and theoretically with little waste. The term "DMP" or "Data management platform" means different things to different people, so it can be hard to generalize.
